Thanks to Block Scientific, I was able to procure the re-certified Bayer DCA 2000+ without hassles and get the lab back in operation. The
device works perfectly and I look forward to doing more business with Block Scientific.

Diazyme Homocysteine Enzymatic Assay Kit

The Diazyme Enzymatic Homocysteine Assay reagent is a liquid stable system, which provides a fast, accurate and cost effective alternative to cumbersome and expensive immunochemical methods. A choice of convenient instrument specific packaging options eliminate reagent transfer for Roche Hitachi, Dade Dimension®, Dade Expand®, and Beckman Synchron CX, LX and DXC analyzers. Accurate and reliable, the assay features excellent correlation with HPLC and Immunochemical methods with a linear range of 3 - 50 mmole/L and intra and inter %CV values of < 6%. The assay has no significant interference from lipemic and hemolytic substances and eliminates the “carry-over” interference with iron or lipase reagents that can occur with other methods. More significantly, the assay is not interfered by endogenous cystathionine and therefore can be used with confidence in patients with renal disease. Stable for 14 months from date of manufacture when stored @ 2° - 8° C.

The Diazyme Homocysteine Enzymatic Assay kit is intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of total L-homocysteine in serum or plasma. The assay can assist in diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected of having hyperhomocysteinemia and homocystinuria.
